Balanced Diet

Scientifically speaking, a balanced diet is a diet (what you eat) that contains the right amounts of all the food groups. It includes fruit, vegetables, grains, dairy products, and protein. 

Somehow, we have misunderstood the concept of a balanced diet, and consequences are visible; there is an increase in diet-related health issues.

In the current scenario, diet is likely to play a crucial role in your health and fitness, as due to hectic schedules, we get less time for physical activity.

Scientific research proved that diet contributes almost 70% to your health and fitness. Every balanced diet must have these seven essential factors: carbohydrates, protein, fat, fiber, vitamins, minerals, and water. A well-balanced diet provides vitamins, minerals, and nutrients to keep the body and mind strong and healthy. 

Eating well can also help ward off numerous diseases and health complications, maintain a healthy body weight, provide energy, allow better sleep, boost immunity, and improve brain function.
